My invention relates to fabric treating"de-V vices and refers articularly -t'o`"`^`device`s v adapted for the pro uction` of a 'finished 'face' f to fabrics. i' l During the manufacture of-fabrics," and especially those having a pile, or napfand for purposes of renovating worn fabrics, it

is frequently,n desirable toimpart aismooth finished appearance articularl'y desirable where the face ofthe abric has a worn, glossy appearance 1n l which the u to theseparate. performance of -these operations. y i v A t In the sponging, orymoistenin'g, operation, the Afabric is. liable to be moistened unevenly, and if a considerableslurface i's moistened, a of it isliable to becomefdry prior to the following operations,'resul ting in uneven results. The'moistening of a 'small surface and then afterftreating 1t and repeating the operations4 is a slow expensive and unsatis- 5 factory process.

l Tliesame obgections are incident to separate brushingjand ironing; because, unlessthe moistening operation 'is immediately fol- Qr bushngs '0 .ratin vand this imme iatelyffollowed b yt eironsing, or layingyprocess,theresuts will ,be uneven and undesirable... .y y y v L The .device of. my inventionv overcomes "all ofthe above mentioned, and other, objectionniethcds,and presents a meansv where y the-f v.steps of .operation immediately follow each other by. a,single1mjovement y v i u thus resulting in the"production'of superior 'to its face, ands this is of Figure 2.

A heater container consisting of the'nfetal ,'85 bottorn26, the metal sides 27, 28, 29`and 30,

f separated .i from th: zmica sheet thelabor employed and ofthe time necessary for lthe "operations.

AThe noveltyf'a'nd usefulness' of my device' f will be evident upon a consideration of the accompanying Vdrawings in which similar @parte are designated by rsimilar numerals.

ffFigure 1 is vof* my device.

Fi ure 2 1s a se of Flgure 1.

Figure 3 1s a section through .the 1inef3-3 a perspective view of one form Figure 4 is a ,bottom plan -view ofthe, device of Figure 1. v I A Iu Figure 5 is an enlarged sectionthrough-the B5 line 5-p-5 of Fil ure 3. Figure 6 is a ront view off the comb-of ``the device.

The particular form "of the device'-of 'my invention shownjn the accompanying d raw- 1n i cor'isistsv of a easing havingjthe-:fto 10,2 the sides 11,112, 13 and 14. `A handle 15,V av- 'ingan openingftherethrough has an exteriorly threaded portion 16 which is threaded "into an interiorly threaded portion 11-7 the 75 topv 10. A l A The portion 18 of the to '10 is extended downwardly forming the wa ls 19, 20, and21. A perforated-plate'22 extends transversel i beween the walls 19, 20, 21 andy'14. A threa 9 ed 1ug\23 carry wit in'an oi'peningin the side-14.' A sponge 25 is carrie ,by'thi's'p ortionjof the and the top "31 of` asbestos sheet is vIiiredly at-4 tached to the top v1 0y by means of thes'crews` 32,- 32 ywhich vare threaded into opening in the sides 2'( and29. y

:cess34 .is lwithin. the heating .chamber and bottom 26 by means of `a'. t Reistance Wires 36 and 37 are 95 positiened'within th'ej recess 34 and are. 90m.

'nectedz to the 'insulated electricA conducting wiresf38 and 39 respectively by means ofthe connecting nembersllO, 40. The-w1res-38 and A39- pass through t "ffvt '.f'fif ction through the line 2--2 l eo ing a gaSketeMsthreadame e opening 'in thefhanj 100 `dle 15, being protected by the insulating core 42 and actsas a support for the' brush.

The other end of the core 42 'has' asquare re.-

cess 46., A brush supporting and revolving member comprises the pin 47, having the reduced portion 48 passing" through an opening in'the side 11 and being enlarged into accable thesquare portion 49 which is p e memwithin the brush core recess 46.

.26 ber 49 carries the sprocket wheel 50 and a pawl`51 is pivotally carried by the side 11,

'the spring 52 causing the pawl 51 to abut upon a tooth -of the spocket 50.. The

brush, therefore, will beheld in "non-revolu- .ble position whenthe -device is moved-d over a surface in the direction of the arrow A shown in Figure 2, but 'can be revolved by 'ing the member 44 out of contact revolving the pin 47. l

The brush can be readily removed by screwwith the brush core 42.

Positioned between -the brush core 42 and the wall is a comb havin -the back 53 and the teeth 54, 54. The com is held in position, with its teeth 'passing through the bristles of the brush, by means of the two exf tended ends 55, 55, each 'having a resilient cut out portion 56, fitted within recesses in the sides 11 and 13. t

The operation 'of the device is as follows Water 57 is introduced into the compartment above the place 22, through the open- -ing in the side 14 by removing the plug 23,

which is then replaced, thus moistening the lsponge 25.- The electric current is. turned on 'until the'bottom (plate 26 of the heating element has reache the desired temperature,

andmaintained at that temperature. The

vof the comb. yThis is a [most device is then passed over the fabric in the .56 direction of the arrow A of .Figure 2,-during which operation, ythe s onge 25 moistens the goods, the nonLrevolu le brushbristles 43 tion, a casing carrying a smooth heatable .ironing element, means for heating said ironraise the nap, or ile, and place-them in parallel position 'with respect to each other, and the heated vplate 26- ironsthem into uniform position.

During this operation the brush bristles .becomeclogged withloose fibers and hence loose thelr effectiveness.l This diiliculty is readilyovercome, by revolving the brush .during which operation the loose ,fibers are removed from the brush bristles bythe teeth b valuable attribute of my device. l

It will thus be seen that Ithe device of my invention :performs three'necessary oper by manual manipulation, it is evident that it is capable of mechanical application.
